i wish i could vote for more than one! cos i think that some should still stand but these should not be:

Basic Instinct
Psycho
Seven
the Empire Strikes Back

some i haven't hear about/ or i haven't really seen them.. i might now them better by their norwigan names!

these should still be spoilers!

Fight Club
the Crying Game
the Others
the Sixth Sense

cos not everyone has seen them, and theose movies are sooo much better when you DON'T know!!!

i haven't seen tyhe crying game, but i figured that it's better too see that film, when you don't know!!!😉
 
The Empire Strikes Back, everyone know's this already so I don't see it as a spoiler anymore!
 
I think the Crying Game's doesn't count as a spoiler anymore, because the term "Crying Game" has become shorthand for
transgendered people trying to pass as "normal"
.

And Rosebud is just a part of the collective film consciousness - you're either the type of person who would watch Citizen Kane and you already know what Rosebud is, or you're the type of person who would never watch Citizen Kane and you'll never know what Rosebud is.

I think the more recent films are all still off-limits as far as spoiler discussion. And I think the original Planet of the Apes has the best surprise ending of any film ever made (which makes it all the more puzzling that they changed it for the remake - I love Tim Burton, but he was definately not at the top of his game for that) and everyone on the planet should be required to watch it (especially if they've seen the remake but the only thing they know about the original is that Xander can quote from it).
 
What a creative idea for a thread allycat! I had fun with this one, thank you!

LD, these things you talk about...very very interesting! 😉
 
LD, I saw Citizen Kane and I didn't know what Rosebud was out front. Sorry pal, but there goes your theory!

Also I have seen all the old Planets of the Apes. But I'm still hesistant to seeing the remake, I somehow can't imagine that a movie with Mark (annoying and ugly) Wahlberg can live up to the level of the original. I do consider the ending of the original a spoiler, but just because so many ppl probably don't even know the movie at all.

The Empire Strikes Back, now that is definatly not a spoiler anymore.

For the others goes they're still spoilers!

I get that a lot. Actually, my brain sometimes scares me too. Like, late at night, it slips out through my ear, sneaks out of the house and parties with all sorts of unsavory characters, then it comes home all drunk and smelly and loud. This one time it even pulled a knife on me and it was all like, "Yeah, you're not so smart without ME, are you tough guy! HAH! Go ahead, cry like a baby! Big baby no-brain, that's what you are!!!"
Yeah, so that kinda sucked. But eventually he always crawls back into my head, 'cause I have opposable thumbs and he doesn't.

Oh, and Allycat: Don't Sorry pal, me, pal! Just because you might be right doesn't make me wrong! ....does it? Oh, damn. Well, I might never be right but damnitalltohell I'm wrong with big words and that's all that really matters! Right? Hello? Anyone?Bueller?
 
LD, is this one of those times your brain sneaks out perhaps? ... not making any sense.
 
The Empire Strikes Back!
Everyone knows Darth vader is Luke's father!

The line's bleedin infamous fer god's sake!

Luke: You killed my father!
DV: No, (dramatic pause) I AM your father!
Luke: Nooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!

get my point?
